Attack on Titan: The Strongest Newcomer

After hearing **Ryo's** arrangement, the man immediately went down to assign people to deal with the matter.

A black bear weighing more than 800 kilograms surprised Ryo! He knew that black bears were strong, but he hadn't expected them to be this strong. It was probably due to their habit of storing a lot of fat before wintering.

Black bears hibernate during the winter and stay in their caves for a long time. Even though their energy consumption decreases, they still need a lot of energy to maintain basic metabolic functions, which comes from the fat they've stored before hibernation.

At this time, the black bear hadn't entered its cave yet, but it was fat and strong, with a lot of fat. With its huge size, it wasn't surprising that it weighed so much.

After a group of people skinned and fleshed the black bear, removing its internal organs and bones, nearly 400 kilograms of meat remained. If divided, each soldier could get at least two kilograms of meat, and the bear bones could be used to make bone soup. Adding a little meat and seasoning would make it taste great, warming everyone's stomachs.

Soon, a large pot was set up in front of the camp. The team had more than a dozen people who brought pots with them. They were truly prepared for anything!

Without these pots, they wouldn't have been able to enjoy the bear meat meal.

"Ryo, this is the meat you requested. We'll also bring you the bone soup soon!"

This group had originally been led by Ryo. Having killed the ferocious black bear so easily, his prestige was at an all-time high, and the team respected him greatly, considering him their leader.

This felt very good to Ryo. After all, he had done so much for them, so it was natural for him to receive such respect.

"Well, okay. You've worked hard. Go and do your own thing!"

Ryo patted the other person on the shoulder, offering a casual gesture of encouragement. He didn't expect the person to stand at attention, saluting in response.

"Yes, Lord Ryo!"

The soldier looked particularly excited. In his eyes, being acknowledged by Ryo was the highest honor.

Ryo smiled and patted his head, not expecting such fervent admiration.

"Let's not eat dry food tonight. Let's have something fresh!" Ryo said with a smile, quickly sharpening a few sticks with his knife before beginning to skewer the meat to roast over the fire.

Grilling was an essential skill for any foodie. With it, Ryo could make the food in the wild much more flavorful.

"Yeah, okay!"

Krista smiled, eagerly agreeing. She'd grown tired of the dry food, especially the marching biscuits she'd shared with Ryo. After trying them once, she never wanted to have them again.

Barbecue was definitely a luxury compared to their usual meals in the training camp. They rarely had the chance to eat fresh meat there.

Ryo smiled slightly when he saw Krista's excited expression.

The entire camp now had fresh bear meat, and for everyone, this was a big event that felt as festive as the New Year!

Even during the New Year, they might not be able to enjoy such fresh, large amounts of meat. Each person was allocated two and a half kilograms of bear meat, with no bones. It was a rare treat.

At the same time, the water in over a dozen pots boiled. Once the bones were added, the fragrant smell spread throughout the camp.

Everyone's appetite was awakened, and many started drooling in anticipation!

Ryo laid out a variety of seasonings like cumin and pepper, building a fire with stones to keep the flames controlled so the food wouldn't burn.

Without an iron grill, Ryo set up support pillars on both sides of the fire and placed a wooden rack on top. This method took a little longer, but the advantage was that the slower cooking process made the meat more tender. The fat from the bear meat dripped into the fire, creating a sizzling sound as the flames danced.

Krista sat across from the fire, hugging her knees and watching with wide eyes as the food cooked. Her anticipation was evident.

"Is it fragrant?" Ryo asked, skillfully sprinkling cumin and pepper on a skewer that was nearly done.

"Mm!" Krista nodded eagerly. Even though Ryo provided her with a lot of good food, she rarely encountered something so delicious. Being in the wilderness made this meal feel even more precious.

"Hehe, it will be ready in a moment!" Ryo continued to roast the skewer, letting the heat intensify. The oil from the meat mixed with the spices, creating an irresistible aroma.

"Okay, here, you can eat it now!"
